Chapter 5
Diclaimer: Really now. Do I have to keep reminding you? I think not.
Warnings: Shall I say it? I shan't.
a/n: i've decided to add something called"in this chappie". as you can guess, it tells you a bit of what's in the capter without giving too much away. ok, on with the show!
in this chappie: a little harry/christine action.
It was an unusually hot night for England. At least nintey-five degrees. Christine had her short hair pulled up into a messy ponytail. Two strands were hanging down into her face. She blew them out of her eyes for the fifth time as she bent down over her Potions homework. It was even too hot in the Common Room, so she decided to go up to the Astronomy Tower. She had taken her robe off and tossed it onto the window seat and taken her shoes and socks off. She loosened her tie around her neck and unbottened the top button of her shirt, revealing shimmering sweat against the moonlight. The moon cast blue shadows across her face. The light danced upon the sweat on her face and neck. It was so steamy, that she had to keep taking her glasses off and cleaning them because they kept fogging up. 'Damn heat.' she thought bitterly as she took her glasses off for the tenth time. She was too busy ranting that she didn't hear the door open and shut. A shadow moved across the room. Sleek and silent, it made across the room in a few quick steps. It was right on her when she turned around. "Potter." she hissed. "What are you doin' here?!" she said. "Same as you." he snarled. He too, had taken off his robe and shoes. His shirt too, was unbottoned revealing toned mucles from quidditch. Not too defined, but just enough to make a girl wish that he would look her way. His tie was undone and hanging loosely around his neck. Sweat was trickling down his face and glittered in the moonlight on his chest and neck. "It's too hot to make a fuss, so let's just study and not bother each other." she said. "Fine by me." said Harry. He sat down across from Christine. Every now and then his foot would brush her leg. And sooner or later, her hand would brush his. "Finally!" she exclaimed. She threw her parchment in her bag along with her quills. "How long you been working on it?" he asked. "Six hours." she said. "Do you mind if I stay here for a while? I'd like to work on somethings." she asked. "No. I don't mind." he said. She sat down Harry studied her. She looked different than when he remembered her. 'Nah.' he told himself. "What are you writing now?" he asked. "Same thing." she said. "Mind if I have a look?" he asked. "I guess not." she said as she handed it over.
~$ Come What May $~
Never knew
I could feel
Like this
Like I've never seen the sky
Before
Want to find it
Inside your kiss
Everyday
I love you
More and more
Listen to my heart
Can you hear it sing
Tellin' me to give you
Everything
Seasons may change
Winter to Spring
But I love you
Until the end of time
Come what May
Come what May
I will love you
Until my dying day
Suddenly the world seems such a
perfect place
Suddenly moves with such a perfect grace
Suddenly my life doesn't seem such a waste
My world revolves around you
And there's no mountain too high
No river to wide
Sing out this song and I'll be there by your side
Storm clouds may gather and stars may collide
But I love you.
I love you
Until the end of time
Come what May
Come what May
I will love you
Until my dying day
Oh, come what May
Come what May
I will love you
I will love you
Suddenly the world seems such a
perfect place
Come what May
Come what May
I will love you
Until my dying day

"Wow." said Harry. "Well." stammerd Christine. For the first time in her life, she blushed. "What's this? The Ice Queen blushing? Now I've seen everything." laughed Harry. "You're laughing at me!" she laughed. "No I'm not." he said. "I really like it. It's powerful. Like how love should be. Loving someone until the end." he said. "I wouldn't know." she said ,suddenly looking very nervous. " What d'you mean? You don't love anbody?" he asked. "Well, not like that. I mean. I love Draco and Blaise, but they're like brothers to me." she explained. "Oh." he said. "Have you ever loved someone like that?" she asked. "I thought I did once." he said as he thought of Cho. "And? What happened?" she asked. "My aren't we full of questions? Well, it turns out that she wasn't the one for me." he said. "Oh. I'm sorry." she said. She sounded truly sorry. "It's nothing to loose sleep over." he said. "True that. True that." she said. "If you don't mind me asking this, how can a girl as beautiful as you have never been in love? I mean, you must have had plenty of callers, so you must've found the right one by now." he said. "Oh, yes. I've had plenty of callers. But, they either liked me because of my money, they wanted to get close to my father, or they just thought I was pretty." she said. "Have you ever been with Blaise or Draco?" he asked. "Draco. For about a year. But, we knew too much about one another to be together, and now we're just great friends." said Christine, looking out the window. "Goodness it's hot." she said. " Got that right." he said. Christine took out a chain from under her shirt. It was a long chain, it went down to the middle of her chest. It had a strange little symbol on it. "What's that?" asked Harry. "Now who's full of questions?" she laughed. "It's apart of the Winters Crest. The language is old elfen. This particularly means love. I have one on my back." she said. And sure enough, on the small of her back, there was the same symbol. Harry ran his fingers over it, barely touching her skin, slowly, almost hypmotizingly, causing Chrisitne to give a small shiver. He stopped. "Sorry." he muttered. "Don't stop." she said. "What." he said intelligantly. "Don't stop." she repeated. Harry did as he was told. He lifted up her shirt and ran his fingers up her back, damp with sweat. She shivered again. "You're very strange to have me do something that makes you shiver every two seconds." he said. "You remind me of Draco when you do it." she said. "How so?" "When I was little and staying at the manor, he used to do that when I couldn't sleep." she said. "Oh." said Harry. "You've never had anyone do that, have you?" she said, turning around. "No." said Harry. "Turn around." she said. For a second time, Harry did as he was told. She lifted up his shirt and traced her fingers up and down his damp back. Now it was Harry's turn to shiver. Christine laughed. "Not so easy, is it?" she asked. Harry didn't hear this. All he said was, "Don't stop." "Sorry, babe. I have to get going or the Dinamic Duo's going to send out a search party for me." she said. "But there is one thing." she said. She turned around and kissed him. It took Harry a minute to register what was happening. The smell of peaches suddenly filled his sences. He responded to the kiss. She seemed surprised but didn't stop. She wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him closer. He wrapped his arms around her waist and if it was possible, pulled her closer. The feeling of warm lips against Harry's sent an electric shock through him. Soon, the need for air was too much. They pulled apart. Christine gathered her things and paused at the door to say, "If you tell anyone about this, I'll kill you." she said with a glint of mischeviousness in her eyes. "Right." he said. When she was gone, he sat down and tried to finish his homework. He sighed and put down his quill which had made no marks on the parchment. 'It's obvious I'm not getting any work done tonight.' he thought. He gathered his things and truged down the stairs and back to the Gryffindor common room. He still
felt the warm fingers running up his back and the soft lips on his. He licked his lips. 'Apples.' he thought. He was so lost in his daydreams, that he didn't hear the wispers behind him.
"He looks different"
"I know why."
"Oh, Seamus. Everything is not about sex!"
"It's not?! Kill me now."
"GLADLY!"
"Heh heh. What are you guys doing with that poker?"
"I wonder why he didn't come to talk to us?"
"I dunno. Maybe Seamus is right. "
"Harry?! No way! You think?"
